Description

First off, no Photoshop was used in this image. I am not a stage magician. I have no neurotic fixation on keeping how I accomplish an exciting image secret. In this case, the combination of diffused light from an overcast sky at noontime combined with very thick tree foliage created a great backdrop to use flash. By using flash in this manner, it counters the ambient light and creates extreme contrast. The side effect of this is to create the illusion that this stone monument is somehow glowing or lit from within...
